The windmill has been in need of repair since March 31 (source of water for plant watering) & the passing clouds have been rainless since the .20" shower that fell on April 11 so the remaining live native plants from the Xerces Society Program haven't been watered. Their survival rate will be low in the report to Xerces of the 98 plantings from last fall. Some of the Hairy False Goldenasters & Upright Prairie Coneflowers are holding on through the drought.
